Weird noise, what can it be?

Hello all,
I have a newly acquired 2005 expedition Eddie Bauer/king ranch combo. I have a weird clicking noise coming from the rear. Ive done the research and have confirmed its not bad actuators. My vents all work fine in the rear on ac and heat. I'm also keeping the rear air off and i still have clicking. I have pin pointed it and its coming from the rear glass latch area. the glass latch seems to work perfectly (it pops open and can be closed and locked). Is it a faulty latch maybe? Has anyone come across this before? I cant seem to find any others with this issue.
Thanks in advance

I am new to this myself. But the only thing I can think of back there that it might be is the rear windshield wiper

Its clicks once the ignition is turned on and the clicks are about 10 seconds apart. It doesnt seem to ever stop.

I agree with landlubber, check the rear wiper motor. Sometimes when the wiper is turned off, the wiper goes down to the parked position but doesn't turn off the power once it gets there. Does the clicking go away when you run the rear wiper?

Thats exactly what it turned out to be I just pulled the harness for now until i get a replacement. Or possibly its because the front wiper motor fuse is pulled out? Like i said, i just got the truck and someone pulled a fast one and yanked the fuse instead of fixing the wipers or at least telling me about it. When the fuse is in, the wipers run constantly.. I have to change the motor or multi function.. not sure which one but will start with the motor. Once thats fixed, i will plug the harness back in for the rear wiper and see if the clicking is gone.. lots of little problems w this truck but eventually it will be fixed.
